The representative for this year’s Miss World pageant for Thailand was announced by BEC-TERO Entertainment and Thai Television Channel 3 earlier this week.

24-year- old professional Model Phatlada “Milk” Kullaphakthanapat who was the runner up in last year’s Miss Thailand World contest will represent Thailand at the international pageant, which is being held in Shenzhen, China later this year.

The usual process to select a representative is a national contest; however event organisers cancelled this year’s contest out of respect for the mourning period of the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej, and instead appointed last year’s second place contestant.

The Date of the Miss World pageant has not been confirmed but no doubt many of you will be following Milk’s journey as the contest progresses.
